What’s something you’re looking forward to this weekend?

Can anyone recommend a good movie that’s in the theaters?

Weighty topics, travel, and giveaways

I’m exhausted!  Long days, daylight savings, and losing an hour traveling to Denver has me all sorts of discombobulated.  Sheesh!  My eats are off.  My exercises are off.  My flow is off.  Luckily I have a blogger meet up with Lauren tonight for something to look forward to :)

Today’s post is actually trying to get a pulse on what you want to see/read from me.  I’ve thought about the following posts, but wonder…would you care?

Do you want to know about my weight ups and downs from periods in my life?  How I managed to get to 144 lbs?  How I got as low as 103 lbs?

Would you be interested in “closet” giveaways?  That is, I do Spring Cleaning several times a year and often come across items I’ve only used once and rather than donate everything to Goodwill, I’d like to share with a recipient who really wants it.  Case in point I purchased this $100 Chinese Laundry cross-body bag (blue/purple with turquoise satin interior) over a year ago.  I’ve used it once.  I think it needs a better home ;)

Do you want to see more of my travels?  It seems that my Kauai pics were liked and I’d love to share some of the other places I’ve been and (amusing) stories to go along with them.

Any other ideas???

Help me by answering any of the above…and Thanks!  Hugs to you!

Shoes-Day!

It’s day 2.5 in Denver and I’m starting to believe that Marriott is my new home ;)   At least with all this flying on United, I’m getting bumped up to First Class now and then.  And yes, I seriously get excited about the warm nuts and free wine and whatever mediocre meal they provide =)  Sometimes it really is the little things in life!

Okay let’s talk shoes though! I had a faboosh off-Friday last week and got to do some serious shopping with the bestie.  (And might I add that we had a scrumptious Mexican lunch at a new-to-us restaurant!?)  This is what I wore to tackle the stores:

Prepared to shop

I snuck in my latest purse acquisition too because I think it’s Fall-fabulous, no?  My friend Kristy actually had it first and I immediately began coveting it, so she ended up going back to the boutique in Capitola and buying me one :)   It reminds me of changing color leaves!

Let’s see those boots closer up, mmmkay?

Restricted boots

Please tell me you love these as much as I do!  They are foldover suede boots in cabernet, with loose strapping, and I seriously heart them.  I saw them at Marshalls (duh, where else) and knew I had to have them.  They originally go for $80, but I got them, for $50.

Are you a suede boot fan?

Does your purse reflect the season?
